It is always fun to entertain with just small plates or tapas. It does not need to be Spanish in theme. It can be an “eclectic” mixture of dishes.
- 1 pound of ground beef, chicken or lamb
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
- 5 green scallions chopped
- 2 tablespoons 5 spice
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg
Form into small balls about the size of walnuts. Saute in a drizzle of oil until brown. Place in a 300 degree oven for 15 minutes. Serve with tomato sauce.
For the sauce:
- 1/2 cup sun dried tomato paste
- 1 large tomato peeled and finely chopped
- salt and pepper
Mix together and place in a bowl.
